^ ARC is a cash machine.

For such a £3m microcap to be sitting on almost a million Pounds of spare cash is rare.

ARC should consider a special one-off dividend for investors. It could be worth up to 0.05p per share (today's share price closed at 0.205p).

From the half yearly report"As a result of the timing of contract renewals our net cash as at 31 January 2014 increased to GBP839,530."Not bad for a company with a market cap of £3 million that's on the verge of a maiden profit with increasing revenues & contracts.It's no wonder the directors have been filling their boots here!

Sven i actually sold it last Thursday and was intending to buy back in at 33p. Saw the RNS out on QPP this morning and was disappointed with it just wanted to buy other things CTP, ARC and SVO more heavily. I think there will be more gains out of these now than QPP which is started to resemble a big elephant and Elephants don't gallop. RNS's for QPP are expected to have fantastic news now not just contract wins if you know what I mean. I simple contract win or acquisition CTP or ARC will probably see a much steeper rise.

[sven2006] 10/3/2014 16:01

Leo why did you sell QPP ?

[leopold555] 10/3/2014 09:40

Gutted that I made 4 trades this morning instead of getting 2 mill in one hit but hey ho I should not rush to buy in the morning. When will I learn?

[little minx] 10/3/2014 08:40

I was going to buy this instead of my top up but resisted for today

[oilbuy] 10/3/2014 08:40

Looking good. Half year results having a delayed impact. This is set up for a good base now. New technology and new customers will sent ARC into orbit. They have put the horse before the cart.

[leopold555] 10/3/2014 08:36

Sven also dipped my toe in SVR this morning have a look loads of contracts being won in the US

[leopold555] 10/3/2014 08:36

Intraday reversal.

[harebridge] 06/3/2014 09:28

So the broker increases it's target from 0.18p to 0.24p
That's an increase of 33.3%

Looking good for growth, looking for a contract or two in the coming months! Good luck all.

[harebridge] 06/3/2014 09:02

"We reiterate our BUY rating and move to a 0.24p price target"Which is why I'll be adding!!!Ignore the early morning tree shake. A few week 'punters' will now exit. Watch the recovery today & the smart money start to come in!

NORTHLAND UK VIEW: Solid progress made in H1 on the operating cost base and building the pipeline with new and existing customers under CEO Matthew Jeffs, who joined last April. Sales cycles have been consistently long for Arcontech but the pipeline has expanded and operational gearing would mean the majority of any top line outperformance would drop through to the bottom line. In the interim, the company has conserved its cash resources and is comfortably funded through to profitability. The software offers its customers a strong value proposition enabling them to dispense with larger and more expensive systems but also functional advantages in the management and distribution of real-time data. Shares have performed well on a 12-month basis (+156%) but the FY14 EV/Sales rating of 1.2x is still not demanding. We reiterate our BUY rating and move to a 0.24p price target.http://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/columns/northland-capital-partners-view-on-the-city/15583/northland-capital-partners-view-on-the-city-ferrex-plc-imagination-technologies-group-and-arcontech-group-15583.html

From the broker Northland last August 2013

"we expect another small loss in FY14 before a move to break even in FY15."

So the small loss announced was FY13.

Looks like this company is heading for profit FY14.

[skier100] 06/3/2014 07:47

A huge improvement made by ARC in cutting costs, trimming losses dramatically and moving closer to profits for the first time ever.

[harebridge] 06/3/2014 07:46

A confident report.

Increasing revenues to £976k up 15%

Operating loss down to £69k (reduced by 74%)

Plenty of cash too!

As at 31 December 2013 the Group had net cash balances of £664,098 (31 December 2012: £602,157). As a result of the timing of contract renewals our net cash as at 31 January 2014 increased to £839,530.

Not lots of hype & froth here, just a well run, steady company that is on the verge of profitability.

And a market cap of just £3 million!
